THE PROPOSED CRICKET MATCH.
Sir,—l uaderetand it i» propos«d that th* Ziugari Cricket Club shall play a United 16 oa the 27th mat. Do you not think it would be i» better taste on tka part of the orioket«rs if they were to-choose some other daj for their match than that of the sports at Hamiltou East. The population is not so lar.;e bnt that like a cherry we cant aflbd to mile two bite* of iL For nay own part I would glaulj have ieen both East and West townships mating a on« days combined sports, giving larger prize* and hafing mofo «>enl». At any r*(« I dont tbiuk the cricketer* »ho»!d get up * counter diversion, and more especially tbe Ziogari Cricket Club vrhoe* t appeal wben tbey we*e m waDt of lund* wai heartily reiponded to b/ the general public at their late coaoert.—Hamilton East. [If the match could be arranged te be played on 8otB« other day it weald deu-btlcss be better, but as regards combined tports for tbe two town* ships, we fear a difficulty would arise, not taken into consideration by our correspondent, namely, tbe place where they should be held. Toe only neutral ground, hibernically speaking, being the rifer.—Ed W T.]
